DETROIT, June 24.-st. Alberlus Polish
Church, the scene of the riots OF year
ago, was the bsre Of Binhop Borgess. life,
and perhaps his difficulty with his parish
was his main reason for resigning. Al
any rate all his attempts to open the
church failed and induced new riots.
About two monthH ago Farther Joss,
the administrator Of the dioCeee, brought
a missionary Jesuit Father from Missouri,
whose name is even now unknown, and
set him to work in the Troublesome parish.
At first he had only a small gathering Of
ono faction, but lately his methods have
created 80 much enthusiasm that his
nightly congregations have swollen to
5000 persons, and both factions hang upon
his words and weep at his will.
80 successful has he been that the
church will be opened for public worship
next Sunday, and it is believed that the
riots have been ended by the persuasive
eloquenCe oil one man.
